I wrote for advice recently before seeing my GP recently as I have been through DAs and Gabapentine and Pregabalin. Thank you to all who responded.
He has suggested Tramadol which I am starting tonight - let's see what happens this time! I really hope it works as I was up until 5am walking up and down and bouncing on an exercise ball. Any hints and tips for being on Tramadol would be grateful received.

I take Tramadol and it works well for me. However, I tend to reach tolerance with any medication rather quickly so I alternate with oxycodone. I get harsh rebound from the oxy so I really hate taking it, but if I tough it out for a couple of weeks then the Tramadol works well again for a month or so. However, I still don’t get good sleep due to insomnia issues. I manage to sleep about 90 minutes at a time and then am up for about as long before I can go back to bed. I have seen where some people have taken Tramadol for years and had great success. I hope you’re one of them.
